- The Lockdown Wagon was something we started on Street Machine Carnage but it fell by the wayside after the sponsor was closed down during Covid. We've decided to revive the project here on Scotty's Garage.

Covid ruined my life. Ruined my business, which put extreme stress on my home life and ruined my relationship and I wasn’t able to see my dying father until he’s last days when he didn’t really know what was happening. The word lockdown really gives me the cold sweats. A lot of people got it worse and didn’t make it through, I count myself lucky because I’m still here
I'm sorry to hear that mate. Nobody deserves to go through something like that. I hope you're doing the best you can now.
@@jonathanwishart9104 not really, but I just keep going. There are a lot more people who are worse off than me
hey mate, I feel for you and hope tomorrow is a better day towards a rewarding future for you, moving forward is the only way.
@@mydogzty one foot in front of the other mate, just gotta walk the road that’s put in front of me until I get where it is I need to be
Covid was an absolute joke I'm not after people feeling sorry for me but the lock downs I almost didn't make it with how it effected my mental health living on my own....so glad that is behind us now it was crazy times....I remember this project, was one of the RUclips channels that helped me through a difficult time....seeing Scotty's face each week still plotting along trying to deliver something I guess you should know probably helped a lot of people through the lock downs...so now this wagon means something to me too.
It's not behind us, not by a long shot!
W
Deal with the effects of the bloody jab everyday, just turned 25 never had health problems and my heart is absolutely buggered. 1 shot pfizer
This thing is so cool..
during the crime it was so good you were able to keep putting out content and as you said in the video it wasn’t easy.
Anyway I’m so stoked it’s back!!!
You’ve done the hard rust and the surface stuffs fuck all !
It doesn’t have to be better than 1968 just closed up and clean as.
I’m all in for the bombed 361 stroked ideas
Best keep your stuff your stuff
I like it when a plan comes together!!!!!
426 with a pair of 80mm turbos? Yeah, That'd be a SPICY motor
Heck, even leaving it a 361 with a turbo or two will make for a fun street/strip car.
It is good to see you getting back into the Lockdown wagon, I kinda missed that series, through all it's highs and lows (darn lockdown making everything rough)
Don't ya love it when a good plan comes together...🤩
Subbed to the channel fella. Loved carnage since the early turbo taxi days. This is a bonus 👌
Thanks mate
Scotty, I had a VF and VC. Loved these cars. Smooth fast and cool. Will be here to watch the VE being brought to life...
A lot of prep time on the body Scotty and I can see your vision in this. I hope you show everyone where you source the parts & trim from as Chrysler parts/trim aren't easy to find these days. The finished product will speak for itself with all the hours of toil you put into it.
Keen to see the build process Scotty. Going to be a tuff build
Get to see Scotty twice a week now! Bloody awesome mate loving it
I got that sidchrome socket set
Stays in the 4wd draws and saved my ass countless times
bit overpriced for what it is , quality gone to the shi-ta my small wratchet broke within a few months , the 10 dollar one i replaced it with is still going strong
Centrifugal blower would be nice 😊
There are kits available for the big block Chrysler
just become a patron member. i want to see this wagon done. remembering during covid wait for the episode to drop. watch you work on this been waiting for its return.
Looking forward to seeing the progress on this project 👍
So glad you’re back into the wagon Scotty!
That's the model I learnt to drive on 160hp . My Dad would have bought it New. We went every where in it . Great car. I'll send you some pics if I can find them.
Loving the Val, keep the episodes coming.
Love to see this wagon get the love it deserves. More power to you Scotty
Love your work mate. Love the valiants
Sounds like you're in the crazy club Scotty😁, so don't disappoint all of us!
Hope to see it done , great work Scotty .
Bloody Fantastic Scotty, keen as to see this build progress. Cheers
Wagon is my Fav project 👌👍
Well, you've now asked the question!
@@Low760 yep, I actually asked the question during the week. It's not 100% confirmed, but the answer seems pretty positive
Would love to see the hemi in the wagon! Good job scotty keeping the wagon project going!
However big block with a blower would be super cool too in its own right
Pumped to see progress on the wagon!
Looking forward to the build, 273 VE wagon was another “classic” car my father owned when we were growing up in the 70’s. All nine of us🎉🎉
Looking forward to seeing how this project evolves. Don’t feel like you have to rush mate, it takes as long as it takes to do it right 👍Personally, I like a slow burn as we get to see the highs and the lows. Think Home Built by Jeff, BCW, Rennch, or even Binky (but don’t be THAT slow 😂)
Until you mentioned the cracked chassis rail, I had completely forgotten that the VH Sedan dad bought real cheap had a crack in it and dad had to repair it. From memory when he got it had 2 x 13" wheels on it and 2 x 14" wheels. Other than a couple of broken door handles it was a real solid car and dad drove it for several years before it got retired to the paddock for my brother and I to thrash it around playing Dukes Of Hazard in it.
Would love to end up seeing this old girl resprayed the same orange, blown and twin carbs out the bonnet, nice old school street machine.
Love ya work Scotty, keep it up mate
RustOleum stuff was pretty handy and fairly good when it came to pressure pak cans so it's be grouse to see them back on the channel again :-)
Stroker small block at 426 ci YUSSSSSS and even as an NA setup she'd give the A body longroof some pep, I cant even imaging what forced induction would look like down the 1/4 LOL
Be a torque monster!
V8 + Turbo in the Lockdown Wagon = HELL YEAH! Do it Scotty!
I’ve wanted to see this car driving for a while
Make it a streetable cruiser...build engine for boost.
But jam it with 150-250 shot if can't get harrop or capa sponsor.
Looking forward to seeing the rebuild on the Safari…
Or the cheaper option for the big block is bore it to 4.250 and use 383 chrysler off the shelf pistons (KB400 domed) with your factory rods, a boosted 383 will be decent, the stroker option is going into $$$$ oblivion due to the custom piston/rod required. as far as I know there isn't an "off the shelf" kit available for a 361 like there is for the popular 440/400 block options.
Just my 2 cents worth Scott, you can paint it pink, hang ribbons off it and call it fluffy for all I care..... but I'll still be watching and following. I enjoy the "In the shed at home" aspect of your content because it relates more to "povo cnuts" like me 🤪. keep at it
Yeah, the "383" option is also one I'm considering for exactly the reasons you mentioned.
Think you need to throw some boost at it Scotty 😉
yes yes yes yes to every thing turbo and engine combo. send it with some lovely boost noise.
Basic stroker sounds good maybe with a set of alloy head's
Scotty: "Tell me I'm crazy"
Scotty, you are crazy, but I'm totally here for it. I love your vision for the car and I'm a big fan of the car itself. Genuinely cannot wait to see what you'll do with it and see how it goes. Very excited on your behalf and very much looking forward to living vicariously through you on this haha.
Love it Scotty, was enjoying the build series on it during covid so am happy to see it coming back again. The Hemi would be great being an old school classic with a modern drive train and I hope someone comes on board with some sponsorship or support and you can do the Hemi but the big block isn’t a bad option either.
You can do it.
Ok. Two ways this build could go.
If you go the big block route, build into a classic hot rod/street machine. But if Street Machine say you can have that other motor, use that, and resto mod it. Keep the outside looking original, but totally modernise underneath. That includes the interior. The whole hog. It'll be a first for one of those.
Can't wait to see the wagon come to life 🔥 boosted big block, let's go!
ive got to say scotty i bloody love seeing these more laid back video content with a down to earth bloke that tells a few good ol stories! mate keep it up again loving the content mate :)
it like to also reach out and say if there is anything you ever need feel free to reach out man im willing to get down and dirty with the tools
truck engine for sure. looking forward to the build. also loving the Chrysler knowledge. awesome
Boosted big block!!! Do it!
Be very cool to see the big old school motor, with the new school EFI and turbo tech in it.
Sweet, Scotty's shed videos just got boosted.
Looking forward to the build on this one, im wanting to buy a valiant project so this build will no doubt help me.
Mad can’t wait to see more of the wagon
This is going to be awesome. Im always looking for updates on this build. Let’s get this shit done. 💪
We're with ya all the way, cant wait to see how it turns out
@@TankyMcStagger thanks mate
awesome ideas with the wagon...
Looking forward to seeing this progress
Hope that street machine can be generous an collaborate with you and give you the late model hemi
Or another sponsor steps up and takes the wagon to what you originally planned
Get yourself some weld through primier. It means if you need to weld then you don't need to re bate metal. Have a good week. Marc
Stroked big block turbo wagon sounds awesome
I do lkook forward to the build process. I often follow similar videos just to find out how much stuff I aleady know and stuff I don't know
I'm glad to see the safari making a comeback! The big block from your dads ute would be great in the wagon as a 426! That's if SM dont let you slip the hemi in there haha. The sheds looking the goods too mate!
Of course I had to upgrade to the highest tier! Happy to support great content mate.
@@DaveHiggoHiggins thanks mate
Wagon's cool Scotty go with 361 motor you got it there use it 727 trains that will be a fun package to drive 👍
I swear with my 1/4 drive sidchrome is great mine more sockets A/F and metric.
Hi Scotty , great vid mate. If you're interested i have 2 original 160hp badges you can have . It may help disguise the wagon.........Looking forward to the build.
I'd love to see a 383 or 440 in it👌
@@michaelteasdale2919 383 is pretty easy, just by boring it out to 4.25in bore
I owned aVE wagon back in 1980. 273 V8 but was a slug. We used to call it the hearse😂
My parents had an XC wagon we called the hearse and then the meat wagon
Motor sounds like a nice package. But body work also needs attention. 👍
Yep, body first
Hmm big chunky pistons sound like prime candidates for an 8/71
boosted 426ci, im here for the long haul Scotty
Not a big fan of doing strokers in short deck blocks. The rod angles get a bit high for my liking. You could always do a 4.25" piston with the crank you have for a revver. Maybe throw a cheap turbo on it depending on what's left in the cylinder walls?
@@DodgyBrothersEngineering we'll measure the wall thickness before doing anything, but I don't think a 3.75in stroke would be too bad. Not like those 4.15in stroker cranks
@@blownhemi remember if you are going to add boost cubic inches aren't as important. Big rod angle plus boost can easily equal bent rods, especially if they are old stock rods. I'd stay conservative, but that is just me (says the guy who was running 30+ psi on an SR20)
Am I hearing a 10 second valiant wagon? Because that sound amazing
Yeah, regardless of which engine I use, it should do that pretty easy.
Twin turbo 😎
Love the plans Scotty. +1 for the big block stroker. What colour are you thinking of painting it? I know it's a long way off but a mans gotta dream right? ;)
@MrMdub87 tossing up between the Vitamin C Orange, the car was when I got it, or the red that I've used under the rear quarter
If you're doing all that work, go whole hog on it. As Steve Morris says, Boost fixes everything, or breaks everything. Either way, it's awesome.
Awesome to see the lockdown wagon back. Just don’t take as long as project binky
@9psi I don't think it will, and when it's finished, it'll work
I'm sure it will evolve as you progress hope you keep the orange colour, keep up the good work
I'm tossing whether to go orange or red, like the red under the rear quarter
@@blownhemi maybe poll your patreon supporters in the future
I would love that wagon in the states for the wtf looks.
Cool big block wagon
400ci with an F1R Procharger 😉
Build up ya hemi BB motor and throw some turbos on dat thang
I think I said this a few years ago but I would love to see it back in original color with a white roof and get rid of that horrid orange
I’m watching 👍👍
I had to add a bit to my vision for the wagon
Scotty the wagon fully back to original colour and trim with louvers in the back
And then then a blower and big stupid carbon blower hat out the Bonnet
I will send you some money to help 😂😂
@@davidbarnsley8486 I do like the original colour, but I'm not sure I like it enough to go back to it.
Great vid mate,
Thanks 👍
It is going to look taffy when it's done
Hmmm how about a carby 265 but use the blower off the supermang when that is converted to turbo.
Disregard, just got to the end of the vid, v8 it is. you could do 2 blowers like that blue xf ute years ago.
I hear there's a company called Proline that do a nice little Hemi should be pretty affordable 🤣
Yeah, nice engine
please and thankyou- big single turbo with a squirt of noz , bring it scotty cheers
Pick a part wreckers? Can't remember the last time I seen one of those. Such a shame as they where awesome
@Shanes_Shed we have one 5mins from the workshop
@@blownhemipretty much all gone here in metro Perth. Probably still some left out in the country areas
I was wondering what happened to, The Great Escape.
It makes sense to do the 6.4lt hemi swap, even if S/M keeps title on the engine itself. It would be a shame to have done the homework and bought the conversion parts only to abandon it.
We're in talks about that right now
Don't wanna rush you or nuffin. hahaha 🤓
One word, Scotty. Hurricrate!!
👍👍👍
Love the wagon project! Would it be difficult to put a manual gearbox behind the 361? Would make it so much fun to drive. Keep up the great work!
It requires alot of tunnel work and none of those parts are available in Australia
@@blownhemi bugger, would still be awesome with the torqueflite and big cube motor. Looking forward to seeing this one get built.
Scotty I would love to see a Turbocharged 245 or 265 an how hard the job is to do.
I've done the turbo hemi six thing before, they're a lot of work.
Yeah Scotty, use epoxy primer after you bare metal it...epoxy primer is not porous unlike normal primer, and can use body filler over it..
@@robbollom7396 yep, that's the plan, but I'd like to try some metal work first
Big block with a blower. Maybe even a procharger or something. You play with lots of turbos already. Time for something different.
Hi Scotty, I have a 6.1 hemi short motor
It’s yours if you want it
All you’ll need is heads n whatever manifold you desire
@stevescott8764 thanks mate, where are you located?
@@blownhemi Cronulla
I also have all the rocker shaft gear and valve covers
Do a procharger setup
@brentcouper1513 pretty expensive to do, but it could be fun
It's unfortunate Ozzyland was abandoned by both GM and Ford.
The imported Pontiac GTO had much better fit and finish than even Cadillacs of the same time period.
Surely you supercharge it
BOOOOOOOOOST!!!!!
